Biography

╭━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━╮

Raised in the Halcyon Sound, unassumingly, an felt like a failure, unsurprisingly. When your parents dote on you so heavily, you want to make them happy, to follow in their footsteps, to claim your place as their child in earnest. With so much competition, middle of the road can feel close to failure.

Hieronymous hoped finding his charge would change that, one day. But no sooner had the thought of it crossed their mind, before their Search could even begin, they had those hopes dashed to pieces. A stranger in search of an Emperor, summarily chased from the premises. No, not hir, not exactly, but something there. Something their parents could never know of.

Zyred stuck around, not so easily dissuaded from their course, but Hieronymous begged hir to leave. They spilled things they shouldn't have, promising to help, promising anything that would get hir away from this place, from their home. Promising things they might not even be able to make happen.

But Zyred didn't seem to care, and didn't ask, though puzzled, why it mattered so much to them. They were happy to have help, they said. Just happy. If Germ would come along, ze would find somewhere else to make hir own promises come true.

Hieronymous agreed, but, plagued by some kind of call, they sought a scroll— any scroll— to chase away the feeling. But even as a spiral, they still couldn't kick the unease. They followed after Zyred instead, mourning their life and homesick at every step. Across Light territory and further, places they would never have dreamed nor dreaded to go, and into the maw of the beast.

Zyred thought that studying Lumiax might give them a clue. Them— plural, as if Hieronymous was part of this. Which, he was, but not for any willing reason. He reluctantly tagged along, and hated every minute. Struck wordless before the rampage of a seemingly mindless monster, he felt himself drifting, fading, thoughts blurring...

An inopportune time for a spiral-induced nap nearly got him killed. He woke to a couple of concerned faces peering down at him; not just Zyred, but his timely rescuer as well, which could have been Zyred, ze insisted, if ze'd been given a chance. But hir usual insistence wasn't behind it, instead a distant consideration that might be mistaken for concern.

When all was deemed well and good, Yuti introduced themself— a storyteller devoted to spreading tales of the Windsinger, and his savior of the hour. The way Yuti looked at him, though, Hero felt more like a bug pinned to a board. Or maybe a helpless princess.

There wasn't much opportunity to dwell on it though, with Zyred's change of attitude. The run-in with Luminax had wrought a change of heart in hir, or something and ze spent nearly three days in moody silence, giving little to no objection when Yuti invited themself along. Finally, on the morning of the fourth day, ze woke them both with a firm announcement.

Leaving. They were leaving Light territory and all manner of hideous Luminaxxy things behind, heading to greener pastures— or, as the case became, colder pastures. This revelation showed more of what Zyred had been thinking this whole time, partly because Yuti did what had never occurred to Hieronymous, and just asked. What was ze planning, what did ze want.

It had only a little to do with emperors, as it turned out, and a lot more to do with family. Something deep tugged in Hero at that mention, a sorrow and discomfort they could only attribute to their own family. But Yuti's mind was made up just like that. They were coming along, wherever this journey led the two of them, and they'd offer what little help they could. Surely, at the very least, the two of them could use some kind of protection.

He didn't like how they looked at him when they said that.

In the end, though, Yuti revealed themself to be not a bad person. Far from it, despite their vague nature, they had few secrets to spare, spinning their own life into a series of tall tales that reassured Hieronymous, and that Zyred seemed to adore. Armed with something like an awkwardly budding new friendship, the three of them packed up to continue their voyage— into the Cold Waste.

ZYRED
???
He'd like to stay away, but he can't. Not just a promise, but something else too— something that scares him more than his parents.
________

YUTI
Protector
They're perfectly nice, perfectly kind, and he doesn't understand it one bit. What's to like about everything his siblings mocked?
________

ASPER & DOYEN
Parents
Love and admiration, both of them, but he fears the repercussions of what he can't control. From one, more than the other...
